Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a box for disposing of used injection needles, and more particularly to a box for disposing of used injection needles capable of easily and surely removing used injection needles from syringes without injuring fingers and the like, and capable of safely and hygienically discarding used injection needles together with the box.
  • the box can be preferably used for containing and discarding screw-type double-edged injection needles (such an injection needle that is fixed to a syringe by means of a screw at its hub and has two needle points at both ends, i.e. on the sides of human body and liquid drug) such as dental injection needles.
  • the injection-­needle-detaching means provided in the case has a holding portion of which shape fits the shape of a hub of the injection needle.
  • the injection needle inserted into the case through an insertion opening made in the case is firmly held by the holding portion, since the size of the opening defined by the holding portion is a little smaller than that of a cross section of the hub and the hub itself has elasticity.
  • the rotation of the syringe releases the connection between the syringe and the injection needle.
  • the injection needle removed from the syringe remains held by the holding portion, and moves along a notch formed at the fixed member together with the movable member, while contacting with the fixed member, by moving the movable member forming a part of the holding portion against elastic force of the elastic means. Then the injection needle stops contacting with the fixed member and drops into the case.
  • a box for disposing of used injection needles comprising
  • the disposing box of the first invention is composed of a case 1 and an injection-needle-detaching means (hereafter referred to as "detaching means") arranged in the case 1.
  • the detaching means is composed of an elastic means 6, a movable member 3, a rod 7, and a fixed member 4. Each element is explained in detail below.
  • An opening 2 for the insertion of a used injection needle is made on the upper or side surface of the case 1.
  • the position of the insertion opening 2 is not particularly limited and might be made on such a position that the handler can easily insert injection needles.
  • the insertion opening 2 is made on the upper surface (shown by symbol P in Figs.1 to 3) of the case 1.
  • the size of the insertion opening 2 might be suitably determined in consideration of the thickness of a tip portion of a syringe 20 (see Fig. 5).
  • a detaching means is arranged in the case 1.
  • the functions of the detaching means are to hold the hub 22 of the injection needle 21 inserted through the insertion opening 2, to remove the injection needle 21 from the syringe 20 by a prescribed operation, and to drop the injection needle 21, which is held by the movable member 3 and fixed member 4 in a removed state, into the case 1.
  • the detaching means is, as described above, composed of the elastic means 6, movable member 3, rod 7 and fixed member 4 (see Figs. 1 to 4).
  • the movable member 3 has a holding portion 9 of which shape corresponds to a part (about one-half) of a cross sectional shape of the hub 22.
  • the hub 22 is firmly held by the holding portion 9 and holding portion 5 formed at the movable member 3 and fixed member 4 respectively.
  • the hub 22 is firmly held by the holding portions 5, 9 when the hub 22 is inserted in the opening 12, because the size of the opening 12 is a litle smaller than that of a cross section of the hub 22 and the hub 22 itself has elasticity, i.e. capability of shrinking a little in the radial direction.
  • the movable member 3 is within the guide 11 and can move only in the direction parallel to that of elastic force of the elastic means 6. In the specification, "direction of elastic force of the elastic means” is a direction in which the elastic means returns to its original shape.
  • a rod 7 for moving the movable member 3 against elastic force of the elastic means 6 is fixed to or contacted with the end opposite to an end of the movable member 3 to which or with which the elastic means 6 is fixed or contacted.
  • the term "rod” is a wide conception including bar members, plate members, and the like, and includes any member as long as it functions as a “rod” in the present invention.
  • a part of the rod 7 protrudes outside the case 1 through a hole 17 (see Fig. 5) made in the case 1.
  • an approximately rectangular pressing plate 10 which is so curved as to fascilitate the pressing operation by a finger.
  • the pressing plate 10 can be attached to the end of the rod 7 protruding from the case 1 by means of adhesives or screws.
  • numerals 31, 32 and 33 are a case, a tubular guide hole and a slit, respectively.
  • the case 31 serves to contain used injection needles removed from syringes, and is not particularly limited in its shape and size.
  • the holding means 36 comprises a fixed member 37 and a movable member 38.
  • the fixed member 37 is fixed to the case 31 through a bracket 41.
  • the movable member 38 can slide up and down within a guide 42 fixed to the case 31.
  • the above-mentioned operation rod 34 is integrally formed with the movable member 38.
  • a spring 43 is arranged between the bottom surface of the movable member 38 and the guide 42.
  • the cap 35 is detached from the operation rod 34 and pressed into the opening of the guide hole 32, so that the jumping out or protruding of contained injection needle from inside the case is prevented.
  • the disposing box of the present invention can be preferably used in discarding screw-type injection needled, or Lure-lock-type injection needles.
  • the disposing box When used in discarding double-edged injection needles or blood-­gathering needles among the above mentioned injection needles, the disposing box remarkably exhibits its convenience due to the holding effect of the holding portion.
  • a box for disposing of used injection needles comprising a case having an opening whereinto a tip portion of a syringe is inserted, a movable member, and a fixed member, both members being arranged in the case.
  • a hub of an injection needle inserted through the opening of the case is firmly held by holding portions of movable member and fixed member due to elasticity of the hub itself.
  • the rotation of the syringe causes the injection needle to be removed from the syringe, and the removed injection needle, which is not pulled out together with the syringe and remained in the holding portions due to holding effect of the holding portions, can be dropped into the case by the operation of a rod outside the case.
